September 13, 2016, 8 years ago
Metal Wani writer Jake Patton had a chat with Exodus founding member and drummer Tom Hunting at Summer Breeze. He discussed playing at Wacken Open Air, fan response to new tracks from Blood In, Blood Out, return of Steve 'Zetro' Souza, whether he brings in new energy in the band that was missing in the band during Rob Dukes era.
He also throws light on the songwriting for next album, songwriting session planned early next year with Gary Holt, his role in songwriting, his take on fans 'wasting the time' by texting during shows, his experience of metalheads capturing the live shows via cellphones, his take on Twisted Sister axeman Jay Jay French's '25 Years old rockstars' statement and his take on bands like Warbringer reviving the 80's thrash metal scene.
